Default Living dangerously, so I shot em

A bird in the oven, and what walks through the yard today?
I shot a half dozen of em, and thought I would share.

Yep, they had it coming. Nothing like some wild turkey breast sliced thin and seared in bacon grease, then slapped between some sourdough and mayo.

next to the airport fence that we drive past on our way to and from church every sunday is a small patch of ground, maybe 100x200 feet. every sunday there are several wild turkeys browsing there. unfortunately, there is no way to shoot there safely, as it is bordered by the airport on two sides, a residence on the third, and a public road on the last. every sunday i have to drive past them while they sit there on their fat asses, taunting me

We have pheasants and deer stroll through our yard. Don't think the neighbors would like me taking shots at them

Yummy! I was driving through the Smokey Mountains National Park on Wednesday and had to stop for a group of about 15 turkeys in the road. I could have easily popped a couple with the Glock....but I bet you would get in less trouble for robbing a bank than you would for shooting an animal in a NP with a CCW.
